● Plaintiff Mozingo + Wallace Architects, LLC, was a depositor with the Bank. An employee named Debor Guear was charged with being responsible for Mozingo + Wallace’s finances, including the receipt and review of account statements, payment of invoices, and reconciling all financial accounts. In 2013, another bank advised Mozingo + Wallace that it had been receiving an unusually high number of checks issued by Mozingo + Wallace to Ms. Guear’s account. Mozingo + Wallace obtained records of its account at the Bank and alleges that Ms. Guear had been making unauthorized transactions from its account. On September 25, 2013, Mozingo + Wallace sued the Company and the Bank in the Court of Common Pleas for the Fifteenth Judicial District, State of South Carolina, County of Horry, Case No. 2013-CP-26-6494, alleging that the Bank improperly allowed Ms. Guear to control and access account statements and seeking damages in an unspecified amount. The plaintiff recently dismissed the case without prejudice and re-filed a new action on or about March 27, 2015, naming the Bank and Company, as well as the plaintiff’s former outside bookkeeper. Discovery is ongoing and the Bank’s motion for summary judgment was granted in part and denied in part after a hearing before the court. The parties will soon submit a proposed scheduling order, which will establish deadlines for the completion of discovery, filing of any final dispositive motions, and trial, if necessary. The ultimate outcome is unknown at this time and a reasonably possible loss cannot be estimated.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
